Next they will be telling us that a White Christmas is racist! “I’m dreaming of an unobtrusive Grey Christmas ... “ Rolling of the eyes commencing ... shaking head ...

Unbelievable!! Have they ever heard a Rap song? Ridiculous!

Its also White outside!! 🤣🤣 Whatcha gonna do bout that?

Here is a nice Hollywood/LWO song they can play instead: Christmas Demonizing Baby It’s Cold Outside is a symptom of the engineered rot that is decaying our nation.

But play all the Jay Z bang a ho songs you want!!! Pathetic.

Jingle bells is Ableist, because it's offensive to those who can't jingle....And I'm not even going to start with 'I'm dreaming of a white Christmas'

This is ABSOLUTELY NUTS.........or should I change that expression as well.

Angelgtr1 STUPID

So, when will the left go after certain rap songs for promoting 'rape'?

Oh, but some of these rap songs with cuss words and using words that demean women are just fine. Compare the two and see which is worse.

Is it OK to Sing it in Pussy Hats?

People are just stupid these days. I have no tolerance anymore. If you don’t like it, don’t listen. Smdh

What the heck

That's bs!

Well that's does it! I'm a woman and even I'm done with the MeTooMovement What once had a true purpose has now become a fall back for every single ridiculous thing somebody might be offended by.....like this! I'm over it all.

So Rap is next? N this, kill this, F this, Shot that? Hey sounds like a good idea.

I heard that song just two days ago and l was laughing...the words are so funny.😂

I wonder when the AP will get the list of Pop songs that are going to be banned by this radio station...

Honestly, I’m pretty sick of that song anyway. Good riddance.

Can I hold a door open for a woman or am I supposed to let it go in her face?

No different from every rap song. Reducing women to sex objects

Thin skinned zealots.

I hope they are looking into all lyrics. Today's music lyrics can be extremely rude. Looks like it qi2ll be a silent Holiday.

Oh the tragedy. No more terrible, rape-y song. Too bad it’s not wiped from Clear Channel stations too.

Fricking pansies! Grow a pair, America.

What about the songs about killings cops then ? Seriously two way street then

Get over it

Why allow some to rule others? Reading something in words of songs is part of music history. Remember 'Bully Bully' and what you'd hear if you played a song backwards.

Liberals stop nonsense and stupidity!! Enough already!!

About time!! That right wing Nazi sing a long has literally been promoting big tobacco and date rape to children for decades. Literally shaking right now!!! OrangeManBad

Not for the reason some think only because the song sucks, glad to hear. Now pull springsteen's, Jackson five's, and McCartney's travesties. And please ban contemporary artists from producing more Christmas albums! They continually run the classics

While you’re at it....get rid of the mommy kissing Santa clause one too. Heard it today. OUTRAGED

Wtf...but RAP lyrics,that promote violence is ok? 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

Rudolph will be next, especially the TV show, because the other reindeer call him names, even the adults. Can’t people accept that things from different eras had different cultural norms?

How stupid!

Instead of listing to crybabies about an old song what are you doing about the physical abuse towards women in the NFL. That's important, not a stupid song. Stop listing to idiots on social media do something meaningful

Funny, the moral degradation of this country is caused by the banning of inappropriate song,books,authors,God, 10 Com, respect, accountability, school choice, but promoting the destruction of family unit and government over reach. I’m guessing we aren’t learning from history😢

For real though. I have always thought it sounded a little rapey

What complete and utter rubbish this station is fast becoming - this song is a recognised standard over the past 40 years and should have nothing to do with pc - you can’t rewrite history !!!!

I totally agree! It's not cold! It's frigid outside.

And every rap song ever?

This is insane.

Jesus Christ!

I think people have too much time on their hands. Go do something more productive.

OMG. Snowflakes

I call bs to anyone who’s so sensitive over this song compared to the crap that playing today. In all the genres. Country, pop, rap, metal, all of them. Whiny babies.

Have they ever listened to crap, I mean rap, 'music'?

Breaking: “Escape” by Rupert Holmes banned because it’s about cheating. Also “Every Breath You Take” banned because it’s about stalking. Also “Hey Jealousy” banned because it’s about drunk stalking. Also... 🙄

Perhaps some of the atrocious lyrics of today's music should be given the same treatment... and so the censorship begins and freedom of speech crumbles.

First Christmas shows, now songs? How much more ridiculous will people become?

Love the song - to bad when people are offended the immediate response is to remove it - what happen to free speech - they don’t remove the rap songs with bad language but a Christmas song is offensive- what is our wild coming to?

The song 'I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus' should be removed in that case. It's offensive to conservatives, who listen in dismay as a child watches their Mother commit adultery with a rotund bearded man. outrageous

This will be next....

And it just became my favourite song. 😁👍

I'm sorry but that's almost hilarious after hearing any rap song.

Yeah right, TheyAllKnew

Why is this of any importance? Did I miss something?

Unlike all the rap songs that sing of rape, violence, murdering cops...

This is just dumb.

Stop the presses. Release the hounds. A Cleveland radio station breaks the history of all headlines. It's cold in your head!

Utterly stupid is putting mildly how asinine this is. What’s next? Silent Night because maybe someone’s been gagged? Rudolph the red nosed reindeer for bullying? Away in a manger because it’s suggests lying in a barn? Jesus (the one in the manger song), this is sad.

Here it is!

If this is the case; there goes most rap and hip-hop songs. Just saying.

Just sitting here waiting for other songs to be banned. 1. White Christmas-not enough diversity in snow 2. Frosty the Snowman-too gender specific, excludes other Snow genders. 3. Rudolph, The Red-Nosed Reindeer- Degrading reindeer who are different We can PC Christmas to death

Is it time to ban all the nasty rap and other offensive crap? I love this song.

Yah!!!!!!

Next thing you know Rudolph the red nose reindeer will be racist......to late. Grow up people this PC crap is getting way outta hand. MERRY CHRISTMAS!

8 billion people on the planet...liberals would have you think it is all from rape.

Meanwhile the hookup culture thrives in Cleveland

Unreal ! After all these years ? What about all these songs about sex , murder , divorce , adultery , and more ?

It’s just a song! Must ppl analyze EVERYTHING!

This is taking pc to the bs level! It’s a song. If someone doesn’t like it, don’t listen to it ! The station is submitting to pc bullying!

Blame it on the alcoho-ho-ho-hol. - iamjamiefoxx

Pathetic....

What next? Are radios going to remove songs that call women various things? Hm? Telling women to lick lollipops and come to candyshops? Or maybe songs with words like 'b*tch* in them? I'm gonna get my popcorn while I wait for the Great Censorship Cleanse of 1984. I mean 2019.

Let’s play something less offensive like “It’s getting hot in here, so take off all your clothes.” Or “Picture this we were both butt naked banging on the bathroom floor…”

Good that song is like metoo with a tune

I thought snowflakes liked being Cold Outside ❄️

Cleveland is modeling its city after its sports teams...it needs to change its name to suckville

I really must say...(Baby I’m hard right now)... I’m to weak to walk away...(Baby I’m hard right now)... Why am I blacking out...(Let me unzip right there).. Where am I right now...(I scream and I shout)..

As if anyone needs a reason to hate Cleveland more...

Sensitive PC Babies at it again!

Stupidity eats many American alive .

Damn, who knew 2 live crew was beaten out by crude lyrics so long ago.

Dumb.

Next they'll ban Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer because it encourages and promotes bullying. All of the other reindeer Used to laugh and call him names. They never let poor Rudolph Join in any reindeer games.

Whoever these people are should choke themselves

That’s Rock & Roll.

What other songs has this radio stationed banned?

Can we now stop rap since it seems pretty inappropriate to me.

Let's play all of today's music about sex, drugs, alcohol but let's bitch about an old song that some crybaby got offended by for nothing! Today's ignorant fools will screw up the country for all in the future

That doesn’t change the fact your still in Cleveland.

Holy hell! What about all that “rap crap”? Talk about making folks feel uncomfortable with it’s explicit lyrics. But I guess it’s a special kind of music to some — who don’t care if so many others find it reprehensible.

WTF sad... People need to grow up and not be offended by everything

What next? Chestnuts roasting on an open fire are bad for the environment?

Just further affirmation of Cleveland’s suckingness, and I know suckingness isn’t a word but it should be.

Haha...triggered..

What?!

People are going insane and to the extreme. Soon no one will be able to even talk as any word you will say will be scanned

The song is in the movie ELF for gods sake... ridiculous

I love that song! It is sweet and innocent compared to the garbage put out there! Try banning the music today that absolutely degrade women!

Millenials are such cry babies! Knock it off!

🤦‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️🙄

❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️libtartards❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️

Losers

KATUJoe Let us now outlaw radio, TV, and the glorious intraweb! In this way, we can prevent anyone from ever being “offended” by something that is deemed “inappropriate.” The US; land of snowflakes.

Oh my god that is ridiculous

Cowards.

If people want to hear it so badly then just play it on YouTube. Nothing those MeToo creeps can do about that. At this point they're just asking for attention.

😂😂😂🤣wack-a-doodles as far as the eye can see....

Why!...it's a classic,if you don't like it just change station or turn down volume til it's over...not everyone sees things through the same..it's a classic people..grow up,move on🎄

I take it they don’t play much Hip Hop on their platform either then

Too bad. I'll listen to it anytime!

Have you ever listened to rap? Get back to me about offensive lyrics.

When Christmas is over they’ll get back to playing Eminem’s Love the Way you Lie

This makes me mad! That song is a classic and it is not about a drugged woman and rape!

Seriously? Apparently they’ve missed 95% of the rap music out there. That crap is way more offensive. Why don’t you ban Rudolph while you’re at it?

Fucking insanity

This is what happens when people have no understanding of historical context.

Another thing the LEFT touches and then destroyed.

1. It’s a rapey song 2. What is the percentage chance of people in Cleveland catching this song that is only used in a group of many 3 mos out of the year 3. Buy the freaking song. 4. Bigger issues to deal with 5. What WAS in her drink?

How ridiculous!!!! This song has been played during the holidays probably long before the complainers were born. I am so sick of all of these people being offended. Honestly they offend me!!!!

Listeners in Cleveland are dumb.

I support the ban, it's a shit song. I don't wanna hear it all this Christmas

So we bow to the minority again! Speak up all you normal people. Oh sorry! Normal people don't use tweeter.

Rapiest song ever.

And due to you biting on the publicity stunt- everyone in Cleveland knows what station is playing holiday music!

Wow this is so stupid. Welcome to liberal America

Noooo. Is “Elf” being banned also? So sad

Baby there's snowflakes ❄❄❄ in Cleveland.

A culture with hardly any morals left says that old song is inappropriate. What's become of our sanity?!

That is absurd!

Welcome to the present day. When emotion clouds your better judgment, logic and common sense and everyone has to suffer for it. Takes only one, just one to spoil a bunch.

Sorry, it's a cute song.

What about Nikki manage singing about being a hoe and taking pythons into her kitty? It's okay for pre teens to hear this on national radio and on music video stations ?

It’s a date rape song.... I’ve said that for years.

Fuck sake

Another over the top stupid reaction.

Go for it stupid Cleveland. People should call in and demand the station be shut down and maybe they will.

Everyone should call in & give them shit.

That is another stupid liberal idea the song is cute

It's a classic and I love it.

I loved that song Rip is cold outside, now it better be hot in the winter lol

Haha leftist eating their own alive, blowback isn't it grand!! LMFAO!

And these people think it's ok to kill babies. SMH

Wait 'till they hear about this new music called 'rap!'

Probably the right call tbh (to those that disagree, read the lyrics pls)

How is it inappropriate? It's been good enough forever & these loons find it offensive? Uuugh! The bullies of our country!

It definitely is.

Wow

I don't understand why this song is played during the Holidays. What makes it a Christmas song?

Really how stupid and petty

two_lnl Influencer

But all that gangsta rap is just dandy 🙄

I love that song. And part of why I love it is that it always makes me laugh at how wrong the lyrics are. It’s funny to laugh at old rape-y songs and think how enlightened we are (right). - A liberal perspective

Its ok, its only Cleveland

Okay. Let’s change the name to “People it’s cold outside” would this please tbe mush brain libos?

Good grief. What are we? Victorian delicate hot house flowers? Get over it, I've heard so much worse in song lyrics.

Oh my god give it a break that song been around for years years years y’all need to stop y’all morons

A little late, no, since it has been around since the 40s? At this rate, may as well have waited till its centenary

SOMEONE FIXED IT!!!! ❄️❤️❄️❤️❄️❤️❄️

What station? Who owns it? If these people don't like our culture they need to get the hell out of they US, or get some serious therapy. If you find 'microagressions' like normal American life, you need help! Go live in Iran.

Imagine one's life is so misguided and lonely, that calling a radio station about 'Baby' seemed this important.

I can’t with the left anymore. They are pathetic and weak. They have a serious identity problem and should ask their parents wtf happened. Stop complaining for results, don’t like it!!? Don’t listen!! Man I miss the 70s and 80s.

Why don't they stop Rap music

People have gone nuts

Did those station play rap songs? Asking for a friend...

I have just looked up the lyrics, after years of not having a problem humming along, Sadly jailed criminal John Worboys exactly typifies this behaviour. You have to ask yourself if a woman would write such lyrics....

Clevelandsnowflakes

So... dont listen to it... this movement is absurd. What's inappropriate is the fact that it is overreaching the true intent and purpose of the movement. Globalizing us not productive. Funny how A. Milano uses sex to make money then attacks men who look at her. BS!

Why?

Oh good grief...it’s a damned song! People need to stop taking every little thing literally! The music, tv, and movies today are so much more inappropriate than this song!😡😡😡. Get over it fucktards!

WTH? That's Bullshit!! I am sick & tired of this Political Correctness!!! It's gone way to far. I don't want to listen to rap crap & butchering our Christmas songs of past.

Some people have lost their damn minds

Who ever made this decision is an idiot.

Oh please

Wow these guys are clever. Max publicity for their shitty radio station.

the world should realize that it was a way diffent time hence past move on get over it

Soft skinned cry babies. Get over yourselves. It’s a freaking song. Did it hurt you? So sick of the me me me generation. One crybaby complains and ruins life for everyone else. Screw the complainers

LoJackson94 Neptune’s Daughter is where the song originated. It is a romantic comedy. Also, Neptune’s Daughter is APHRODITE. You know, the patron goddess of prostitution. The woman who caused the Trojan war. MeToo SMH FuckOff

I think it's time for all these people to move to a different country! There, that's the extent of my tolerance for the liberals! Whack-a-doos!

And all those people that listened to it over the years are abusers and/or enablers. INSANITY.

I’m kinda glad. It gives me the creeps now.

This is the most ridiculous thing ever. Apparently they don’t listen to other types of music

Me too movement it's crossing the line, so sick of them be so sensitive. I'm a woman in I'm getting tired of this movement.

It's a harmless song. The Me Too movement is much more important than a corny old Christmas song from the 1940's.

Such bulls***! Stop making things something that they aren’t!

Delusional!

Damn you, KeyAndPeele !!

This sounds more like folks trying to discredit the metoo movement for being overly pc, than folks that are actually a part of it.

Not going to stop me from listening to it. I would be interested in knowing the age of the idiot who decreed this stupidity.

LoJackson94 Fuck this radio station

This is why Trump won

People think it’s a new thing, but I paid attention to the song for the very first time 30 years ago and found it a bit creepy and rapey.

I called my NY radio station to play it 10x more.

Sounds like a promotional stunt. Pick up the sales.

But gangsta rap that glorifies abuse of women and violence is probably still on the playlist.

Great song. Classic. Get over it femi-Nazis

It has always been kind of rapey. Now can we address Every Breath You Take I'll be watching you? No, not creepy at all.

Sure drake and jay z songs about banging women and calling them b*tches are still playing tho. 🙄

And rap music is ok? It’s newer than 1944 and more disrespectful than most genres!

Then you better stop most rap songs and many country songs

What about the song “I saw mommy kissing Santa Claus” is this infidelity or a metoo moment..or “Away in the Manger” a song of child neglect...come on people grow the f up and grow some thicker skin..it is not about you, you know we live here too..

Idiots!

Already I can feel that the world is a better place. Without question. (It is such a pity that there are so many ppl savaged by PC that they think such actions are enlightened. Instead of mindless.)

Inappropriate, have you listened to the lyrics of the crap they play on top 40 stations these days. Give me a break.

Why stop at this song. How about this one

Wasn’t this a story last year?

They still play hip hop?

I like the Jessica Simpson And Nick Leachey remake, she clearly wanted to stay and just yanking HIS chain. Empowered woman song imho

So now will the PC crazies try ban the movie Elf starring Will Ferrell?

The world has gone mad.

This is ridiculous...get a life...

Eh.

It is just the WKRP turkey drop😜

You gotta be shitting me. This is why I hate people.

Oh shut up. This is the least of our worries!

About time! It promotes social drinking and cigarette smoking, FFS!

I’m as liberal as they come and I think this is bunk. It’s peeps like this that give libs a bad name. I assure you the vast majority of us feel the same

Okay so nothing in the lyrics about drugging the said woman...quite a reach to get there for sure...so for all you drama kings and queens.....find another station to listen too. This is America....you have a choice 😉

How stupid.

A 1948 song? Maybe the owners of this station has been affect by that other 30's 40's inappropriateness REEFER MADNESS!

Omg! Grow a pair people.

So are 90% of the rap lyrics spewed forth every hour on the hour.

You reporting this & the radio are Stupid!

“Inappropriate,” “problematic,” “triggering,” “non-inclusive,” “misogynistic,” etc., etc., etc. cancer

The Other TRASH on the RADIO should BE REMOVED As WELL !! It's a WAR on CHRISTMAS is ALL !! ENOUGH

❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️ aren’t only what’s makes it cold outside.

Get. Over. Yourselves. !!!!🙄

It’s basically a rape anthem lol “Say, what’s in this drink”

Oh for Christ’s sake...

Most ridiculous thing I have ever heard!!

Flip on a hip hop channel, head would explode!

Oh give me a break. Let's embrace hip hop rap crap though right?

Have you heard the lyrics to most songs on the radio? You’d have to have silence on the air if we were getting rid of inappropriate songs.

Lordsendthemeteor

rude_jude 😆

Good grief! Grow up!

It’s official, 1984 has begun!

They don't call it the 'mistake by the lake' for no reason.

I doubt this is really from the 'me too' movement. Probably someone who is trying to discredit it.

What absurdity

How stupid.

I’ve been saying that for years! Renee_DSouza RubyRains stephanie_ldd

Ha I’m pretty sure it’s okay considering this is trending. 😂😂

Play the version by lydializamusic and Josiah Lemanski! lydializamusic 'Say, what is this drink? Pomegranate LaCroix...' 'I oughta say 'no, no, no, sir.' You reserve the right to say no. At least I'm gonna say that I tried. You reserve the right to say no...'

TESD claimed this years ago. sundayjeff BQQuinn TellEmSteveDave

Stupid stuff like this must stop. Relax people.

What?

Ridiculous!

Stop the ❄️❄️❄️❄️. Give me a break! There are a lot worse songs out there... and this isn’t a bad song. MeToo has gone too far with this one.

This is stupid

Turn the dial, snowflakes.

OMG. They should have just hung up! This is out of hand

But they’ll play some vile rap, yeah, okay.

Yep it's cold. People's brain are frozen. The level of stupidity is below incomprehensible.

Well, okay, the song does sound kinda date rapey. At the same time, come on, let's all relax a little.

Freedom of speech, right? Otherwise we would have to shut down protests and all music.

But rap music can sexualize women, call them all sorts of names and talk about drug use?

This country has gone off the deep end, liberals are unhinged and ruining the country. God help us

So, listen to a different channel

Seriously? This is an imposition on free speech. Surely the campaign for MeToo is about behavior, not songs on the radio? The obvious question is what comes next? TI censorship handsoffradio overeach letthemusicplay

Foolish.

Ridiculous! Enough! I’m going shopping, guess what it’s cold outside.

Seriously...we are way too sensitive. It’s a song people. I hear worse lyrics on pop radio daily.

What is the matter with this people?

Lol

So we are banning RAP MUSIC NOW TOO?

My favorite Xmas song!

But baby,

Lol. Nuts. Maybe we should put out an APB too for Santa. I mean, cmon, he does hundreds of millions of B & Es a year. Because if he was really invited in, why would we have to be sleeping?

Okay, for all of the “Change the station!” People. If a radio station or all radio stations noticed that every time they played an out-of-date song from 70 years ago, there was a decline in listeners, would you be so upset that it wasn’t being played on a radio station?

Stupidest story behind the slamming of Charlie Brown and Rudolf. Liberals have gone nuts

Pc level 10...............

I am done. The MeToo has gone too far.

If I was rich I'd buy that station and play the song on a loop the rest of the month

Woman in Egypt going to jail for wearing a dress & “feminism” is mad about a song in comfortable ole USA... just sayin’

Supporting leftist extremists ideas is a reckless idea for those of us in the REAL WORLD!!! Totally absurd, says this Ol’ lady from the bra-burning era.

Turn the fucking station if you don’t like the song. I do it everyday.

99% of hip hop music is inappropriate

Stupid

always hated that song. “hey what’s in this drink?”... yeah, no.

themrssymmonds, they must have the wrong version.

Yes, you are always gonna offend someone! If a song comes on the radio that truly bothers you then changing the station or turning the radio off may be viable options.

LiberalismIsAMentalDisorder

Totally stupid. Has nothing to do with the me too movement. Put it back on the air.

I couldn’t agree more. Hate that song

Let’s complain about every Christmas song until they are eradicated for good. I suggest Feliz Navidad as our first target.

So it's the 1950's and that song is just too edgy. Cover your ears people!

Fucking joke

WTF?

Gtfoh.

People are stupid

oh ffs. The metoo brigade gone haywire. Seriously people. Awareness going forward yes. Nitpicking at stuff from the past? Somebody already said it on this thread: get a grip. get a friggin life.

They just don’t play the Bill Cosby version.

Coersion

Ugh. Saw this coming.

Another article I read on the topic pointed out that the repeated saying no by the female singer and the male singer insisting is mainly what is problematic. I can understand that as we are teaching boys and men in our society to respect boundaries this is not the right message.

Wait until they hear 'Into The Night' BennyMardones This country is turning into a complete shitshow

Rudolph the red nose reindeer= bullying ' Baby it's cold outside' = MeToo Trump 👇elected president

Don’t know what is worse...this story or AP thinking it’s news worthy.

Their and their listeners' loss.

Yet they probably play rap songs that glorify rape, drugs, violence etc

So anyone that likes the song is just SOL? Wow

Love that song!

The lyrics are definitely sketchy.

Ha!

But Rap music and its lyrics.. and subject matter is just fine?

bdlowery13

This is a good thing. I’ve always been uncomfortable with this song “What’s in this drink?”

Alternate headline: another gutless media outlet caves to phony rage generated by a minority of highly vocal SJW bullies. Some day, folks are going to get tired of this manufactured outrage crap.

Hear the big click of channels changing in Cleveland.

Good Lord we have raised such a delicate generation. It’s just a classic Christmas song. It’s Dean Martin. It’s Dolly Parton. It’s Kelly Clarkson. It’s Michael Buble. My God, it’s even Lady Gaga. GetOverYourselves

....but I bet every one of them sang Rock-a-bye Baby to their kids.What is more inappropriate than a song about tying a kid's cradle to a tree branch and having the branch fall? Down will come baby, cradle an all. Gag at a gnat and swallow a camel.

I'm sick of Christmas music so who the hell cares

Snowflakes have become simply flakes.

Lol good grief

Bill Cosby’s favorite Christmas Song.

I hate this World.

Well, it is the 'date rapiest' of all Christmas songs...:/

Good one less christmas song

Those who don’t want to listen to it .... don’t. I’m so tired of people who have nothing better to do than complain. And if that damn radio doesn’t want to play it (don’t). Good grief people STOP BEING SO SENSITIVE and find something else to do with your time !!!!

Oh Give me a Break

Tad rape-ie

Dumb right? If they do not like a song just say in inappropriate. They need to suck it up. Their are a number of songs that a lot of people just do not like and they do not bich about it ...

Lmao! Wow, what have we all come to...?

It’s a free country last time I checked!! Change the station if you don’t like it. Geez

Good god.

What a bunch of B S !!

Oh my fucking God who cares. These people need to get lives.

So, they could curse out the police but can’t listen to a song once a year. News flash, change the channel. I guess Cleveland needs to make some sort of news.

Damn ridiculous

And also Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer

Bull shit

ReeTweets

FFS

Good. I hate that stupid rapey song.

Please god find something wrong with Paul McCartney’s “Wonderful Christmas Time”!!!I hate hearing that bleeping song come on endlessly during the holidays!!! Lol 😱

Life itself is offensive, it requires women submit to men sexually.

We are a sexually repressed society. Ridiculous.

Stop it.

But I like that song! I was wondering why I haven’t heard it this year! People can find fault in the fault it self). Not sure if it’s a right sentence but I don’t care

🙄🤦🏻‍♂️

Can I switch to another era? I don't belong here.

Jesus tap dancing Christ, it’s a DAMN CHRISTMAS SONG!!!

When lonely women who've never married dictate what's inappropriate

Yet the song about some kid seeing his mom making out with a stranger is ok? outrage

LiberalismIsAMentalDisorder

People need to grow up and get a life.

My advice is never to take advice from ignorant shitasses.

Ridiculous

Struck me that way the first time I heard it this season.

What’s next? The banning of Silent Night, Holy Night and replacing the word “virgin” with something to satisfy the LBGTQRS crowd? Such insanity in the world right now.

He wrote it for his wife and him to sing together. What a disservice to this artists memory. I’ve always loved ZooeyDeschanel versions of this song.

I’m for metoo and all but this is just crazy.

Keep this crap up and Trump's gettin re-elected

Baby, you crazy!!!

🎄Merry Christmas🌠 and a ❄️ho ho 🎅🏻ho ho 🌲☃️💝

What about the listeners that like it?

Nothing is as cold as a (frozen rock solid) liberals mind

❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️

CLEVELAND is inappropriate, but has anyone suggested eliminating it from the US? Just as insane of an idea!

Is everything a trigger now? Jesus Christ get a grip.

I have always hated that song

C

How many listeners?

These dipshits have intentionally hard lives and love imposing their beliefs on others. Sad.

This is nuts.

I notice no one complaining that we've stopped performing 'Ugg-a-Wug' in 'Peter Pan' because it is horrifically racist and disgusting but apparently we didn't know that at the time. Haven't seen 'Song of the South' in a while, either. You'll adjust without the Rape Carol.

In other words, a small, organized cell of green & purple haired freaks called into complain repeatedly, and the station relented to their demands out of cowardice. Then they called AP which printed this story because it was good for reminding us that we should hate our culture.

To bad great song

It’s actually a song with really strong feminist messaging.

This song inspired a movement that ultimately created ISIS.

Just stupid GetAGrip

How is it inappropriate and when are people going to stop being offended by every little thing in the world? Live and let live, for God's sake.

That's when things got out of control She didn't want to, he had his way She said, 'let's go' He said, 'no way!' Come on babe it's your lucky day Shut your mouth, we're gonna do it my way Come on baby don't be afraid If it wasn't for date rape I'd never get laid

Song of the South. Disney. It’s sad that such a great musical feast was literally racist AF.

Santa Baby must be as offensive since the singer is sexually harassing Santa & demanding her list of presents in exchange for sex as she will wait up for him while he’s on the job.

🤦🏻‍♀️

And doesn’t anyone watch TV and the sexual nature that is presented in all forms!!

Bill Cosby loves this song

Can we just say that all Christmas music is offensive so we don’t have to hear it everywhere? I’d be ok with that.

Couldn't we band playing a vast majority of music if this was the real concern of those said listener?

I guess they don’t play any rap songs 🤷🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

Wait...what? I don't understand the objection to the song. What exactly is the issue with the title?

It’s on my Xmas Playlist

Oh FFS!

This is a slow deteriation of free speech and freedom itself. Soon we will resemble the Soviet Union!!

Ridiculous.

This is the dumbest thing I’ve ever read

Wait until those same people hear Santa Claus is Coming to Town and get triggered by the “you’d better not pout” and “you’d better not cry” lyrics - takes away their entire reason for waking up in the morning.

But the song, “My baby mamma a ho” is still playing.

A better response to the MeToo whiners, would have been for the radio station to put the song on a 24 hr a day loop from now til Christmas!

Baby it’s stupid in Cleveland.

Ridiculous

Because it’s not Christmas music. ChristmasMusic Christmas

Because of the “what’s in this drink?” Line. I thought it was because it’s no longer cold due to global warming!

What....? Wow

Me too asswholes

How are they with 'Back Door Santa?'

In case anyone wants to know what a freakin Idiot looks like...

hahahahahah what have we become?!?

What’s inappropriate is all of these ridiculous humans who must be coddled because of their delicate feelings. It’s getting ridiculous out there. Sigh

Only Cleveland 😂😂

As a child in the early 60s I was afraid of monsters under my bed, then I grew up and realized there was nothing to fear. Push calander forward to the 21st century...seems a great many stopped growing up. 😒

We must destroy any and all things traditionally American. What PC bullsh*t. PlayBabyItsColdOutside PCRunAmuck stopPCgarbage

I hope the radio station goes bankrupt

WTH😂😂, turn the dial to a rap station and your hear the phrase “bitches” “hoes” 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Ridiculous!

I swear I been saying that dude is creepy af for years. 😂😂

rape vibes

That's fine. Frees up some airtime for the 1,000,001 BETTER Christmas songs.

😂 utopia

FFS. 🙄

Good for them. The song is dated and incredibly disturbing and not at all Christmas themed. Winter, yes. But it’s not a “classic” Christmas Carol. Listen all you want on a record or on Spotify or Apple Music.

It’s inappropriate to live in this generation anymore.

People need to chill the F out.

I think we're witnessing the beginning of mankinds' extinction.

C’mon.

Rediculous.

The cancel 89% of all RAP music LiberalismIsAMentalDisorder

amazingatheist

Absolute nonsense.

Oh but Grandma Runover by a Reindeer is ok? I mean...sweet old granny just trying to enjoy the holiday season and she’s killed by homicidal magic reindeer? And Santa likely covering it up. That’s 100x’s inappropriate.

Wankers!!!!

He’s trying to get her to stay longer and she’s being coy. That can happen between two people without it being a precursor to rape.

If we actually lived in a 'rape culture' this song would still be being played.

Insane 😡

That is absurd. When my kids were little they would duet w me with that song . As I did w my Dad. Cleveland....really?

People still listen to the radio? Must be a bunch of old bible thumping Christian trump voters.

Breaking: Every Cleveland Rap station relegated to emit Emergency Broadcast System tone for the entire Advent season

The assholes outraged about the one station that won't play the song are almost as funny as the assholes crying about the song. Outrage du jour.

Same peeps who would not play Elvis or rock and roll. Deemed it inappropriate. 🙄

The PC culture is ruining everything. It’s a shame.

This might be a little bit of a reach. And by a little I mean a lot.

Because of global warming? Sounds silly.

Santa Claus should be inappropriate, BeBest

Wth is wrong with all of you people. craziesruntheworldnow

things change. humans evolve. welcome to evolution.

Replace it with Cyndi Lauper and The Hives 🤣

Omg seriously

This just in.... radio station makes mindless announcement as marketing stunt! Overly sensitive millennials raised in kiddie kennels surrounded by a bubble applaud.

Spongebob

toofar

This is so stupid .

🤦‍♂️

No! Really? If people have a problem with it, they need to remember that it was written ages ago. Just don't listen to it if it bothers you.

Apparently they sure as shit don’t have much to do up in Cleveland since LeBron left if this is news...said in my most “southern grammar” to piss off you “Yanks”!!!

Just stop with nonsense. It’s a cute song. Quit reading things into it.

It's a Christmas song people - stop taking everything so seriously! This is what I call political correctness run amouck. If you don't like the song, simply change the station for a few minutes...JEEZ!!

'[Frank] Loesser wrote the song for his wife and himself to perform at parties.'

Or they want people to remember they’re still a radio station

This could be the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard.

Listening to the song right now, turning louder, annnddd setting to repeat. 😊

See Lenin, Stalin et al were right, let's rewind

Is that because of climate change? Did realDonaldTrump sign an executive order to ban it?

😆

I remember when radio stations would play songs like Magic Stick by 50 cent. Talk about inappropriate

Echolok I remember you talking about the lyrics of this lol

this is a classic song. Whoever thought this up really needs to think this over. This is so idiotic. Wrong too!!

Idiots!

How many listeners really complained? If it was more than 5, it was orchestrated.

This MIGHT be the dumbest thing I’ve ever read.

Wait till they hear Rap

People have literally gone insane 🙄

Cruel summer is next. Where does it end. Cold at Christmas who would believe that.

🙄

Nat_Rea I seem to think we both agree.

What a sick world we live in

I commend this...only because a radio station played it 3 times in less than an hour.

Add a third verse where she can go home if she wants, but it's still COLD OUTSIDE.

2000 rap songs should be as well

It's a great, old song. To stop playing it is not only inappropriate but stupid.

i'm guessing 'I'm dreaming of a white Christmas' will be banned next. smh

Come on now

Their online poll was completely opposite and they won’t reveal the internal poll numbers. More likely the virtue signaling management made the call independently and lied.

❤❤! Our police dept in Southlake Texas posted this. ❤❤

Fox and Friends: 'Is this the War on Christmas?'

🙄

Been saying this for YEARS!
